Billing Termination

Yearly/Monthly Resources

You pay for a yearly/monthly MAS instance when you purchase it. Billing automatically stops when the subscription expires.

  • If you no longer need a resource, but the subscription has not yet expired, you can unsubscribe from it. Depending on what coupons were used for the purchase and on if 5-day unconditional unsubscription rules apply, Huawei Cloud may issue you a refund. For details about unsubscription rules, see Unsubscriptions.
  • If you have enabled the auto-renewal function, disable it before the auto-renewal deduction date (seven days before the expiration date by default) to avoid unexpected fees.

Pay-per-Use Resources

If a pay-per-use MAS instance is no longer needed, you can delete it to stop billing.
